From the very popular book, published by Laine, we've put together the yarn set for Pohjolan Neito Sweater, knit with Tukuwool DK. This sweater is worked from the top down and has raglan sleeves and a colorwork yoke. You can work the hem wider or omit the increases to create a straight body. The sleeves also have two options: long and short ribbing.
This Kit Includes:
- 5-9x 100g skeins of Tukuwool DK (number of skeins is dependent on the size you select)
- Large Woolly Thistle Tote Bag
- Stitch Marker
- Knitted Kalevala book (optional*)
*If you need this pattern, please choose the "WITH BOOK" option as this pattern is not currently available on Ravelry.
As always, it is important to manage gauge to ensure you will have enough yarn. If you are worried you can purchase an extra skein of the main color.
